CELL YELL

n.

Excessively loud cell phone talking. Also: cell-yell.

"Before the cell phone, theatergoers rushed to the lobby during intermissions simply for a quick smoke. Now they hurry out to shout (the 'cell yell,' it's called) into their indispensable gadgets."

— Joel Conarroe, "Addicted to Talking," The New York Times, August 5, 2000

Ed Moose's joint has gone cell free, because Ed found that many diners are annoyed by Mr.Bigshot at the next table speaking in typical cell-yell, closing a deal.

— Scott Osler, "Cell Phones Are for the Birds," The San Francisco Chronicle, July 16, 1999
